lyrics

Two cold feet
Made of stone
Made of stone

You and me
Far from home
Far from home

On a wire
Death defy
Death defy

Through the fire
Burned alive
Burned alive

I’m just trying to be great
A million’s all it would take
Life gets in the way

Sunrise over the land
Wake with a gun in my hand
Feet trapped in the quicksand

Got too many
Got too many people to pay
Got to hustle for the money
Working every day
Got too many
Got too many people to pay

Dig a hole
Underground
Underground

Slip below
Can’t be found
Can’t be found

I’m just trying to be great
A million’s all it would take
Life gets in the way

Sunrise over the land
Wake with a gun in my hand
Feet trapped in the quicksand

Got too many
Got too many people to pay
Got to hustle for the money
Working every day
Got too many
Got too many people to pay
